    Hello HN! I'm an Android OS engineer. I've worked with AOSP and Linux kernels all my career and always wondered about lack of sophisticated tools to debug and analyze system-level logs. Always had to resort to manually skimming through large log files to find something I needed to. With the rise of LLMs and the AI-age, I felt it was a great opportunity to build something for OS engineers, which is what led to logcat.ai!

We run a lot of different systems, on-prem and several Kubernetes clusters, and in a situation like that you spend most of…
